BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE
Robert Bridges was born in Shippensburg, Pennsylvania on July 13, 1858 to John and
Mary Bridges. Throughout his long literary career, Bridges was often confused with the British
poet laureate of the same name, and hence often signed his writings with the nickname “Droch”,
a Gaelic translation of his name, in order to differentiate himself.
Bridges studied at the local teachers’ college, Cumberland Valley State Normal School
(now Shippensburg University), before attending Princeton, graduating in 1879 and holding the
title of class president. During his time at Princeton, Bridges performed writing and editing
work for The Princetonian and The Nassau Literary Magazine. Bridges’ closest acquaintance
was Woodrow Wilson, and the two lived in the same dormitory. They remained good friends
after graduation, and Bridges would later attend Wilson’s inauguration and other White House
events.
Following his graduation from Princeton, Bridges served as a newspaper reporter for the
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, and then spent six years (1881-1887) as the assistant editor
of the New York Evening Post. A man of many talents, Bridges also held the position of literary
critic for Life, writing hundreds of reviews over a span of seven years (1883-1890).
After leaving the Post, Bridges became the assistant editor (1887-1914), and later the
editor-in-chief (1914-1930), of Scribner’s Magazine. Although he retired in 1930, he remained
with Scribner’s as a literary adviser, continuing to make daily trips in to his office until the
magazine stopped publication in 1939. Throughout his career, Bridges reviewed the works of a
variety of well-known authors, including James Matthew Barrie, Henry James, Rudyard Kipling,
and Robert Louis Stevenson.
In addition to his editing jobs, Bridges published a variety of his own material, including
two novels: Overheard in Arcady (1894) and Suppressed Chapters (1895). His first poem,
“Whose Name was Writ in Water. Epitaph,” was published in 1877; he later published a
collection of poetry entitled Bramble Brae in 1902.
Bridges received the honorary degree of Litt.D. from Princeton University and Columbia
University.
Bridges never married. When his health failed, he returned home to Shippensburg, Pa.
He died on September 2, 1941 and is buried in the local Spring Hill Cemetery.
COLLECTION DESCRIPTION
The Robert Bridges Papers Collection provides insight into literary works of the late 19th
and early 20th centuries, and reflects Bridges’ long period of work as an editor and literary critic.
The collection spans a date range of 1875-1937, with large portions pertaining to the early 1890s
and 1900s. The collection is divided into 16 series: Administrative Records, Editorial, Literary
Reviews, Prose, Poetry, Drama, Addresses and Speeches, Other Writings, President Woodrow
Wilson, Princeton University, Aldine Club, Personal, Images, Biographical Materials,
Publications, Photographs, Oversized Photographs, and Artifacts.
The Administrative Records series contains letters detailing the sale of various pieces of
the Bridges collection by Charles Gilbert Beetem, as well as an attempt by Beetem to publish
some of Bridges’ work posthumously. These sales occurred before the collection was donated to
Dickinson College, and provide further context as to what was originally part of the collection.
They are arranged chronologically.
The Editorial series encompasses the 50 years Bridges spent as literary critic and editor
for various publications. A subseries for business correspondence with various authors and
individuals includes communication related to edits, corrections, and suggestions made by
Bridges. All letters to Bridges are original, unless noted, and all letters from Bridges are copies.
The series also contains a subseries for submission correspondence relating to pieces of work
sent to Bridges by other authors, and a miscellaneous subseries.
The majority of the Literary Reviews series is comprised of “Bookishness” pieces,
reviews written for a section in Life magazine. These reviews are handwritten drafts, arranged in
alphabetical order by title of the review, with author(s) featured and date of review given, if
known. Two fragments of reviews with no title come last. The series then moves into proofs
and published reviews for two other literary publications to which Bridges contributed: The Book
Buyer and The Lamp. There is also a miscellaneous subseries for assorted literary reviews
written for unknown publications. Lastly, there is a subseries for responses to Bridges’ critiques
and reviews, sent to him by various authors and readers.
The Prose series pertains to the books and other assorted prose writings penned by
Bridges, some published, some unpublished. The first subseries, Overheard in Arcady, consists
of a handwritten draft, arranged by chapter, followed by responses and reviews that Bridges
received, for his published work Overhead in Arcady. The Suppressed Chapters subseries
contains drafts, page proofs and responses for Bridges’ second published book. The
Miscellaneous subseries contains material for other writings, all unpublished, including
“Inglenook Book-Talk,” “Ingleside Book-Talk” (a compilation of already published columns),
and “The Monterey Wedding” (Bridges’ personal copy of a privately printed account he wrote of
the wedding of Cyrus H. McCormick, Jr.).
The Poetry series consists of a correspondence subseries with responses to Bridges’
poems, and acceptances or rejections of poems he submitted to publications. The Bramble Brae
subseries contains original manuscripts and multiple drafts of various poems from this anthology,
as well as clippings of the published poems. The poems are listed in the order in which they
were published in the anthology. There is also a subseries for assorted poems that were not
included in Bramble Brae; they are arranged alphabetically by title.
The Drama series chronicles various dramatizations on which Bridges worked. The
“Cavalier” correspondence focuses on the dramatization of “Cavalier”; it includes
correspondence with actress Julia Marlowe, with whom Bridges worked on the project, as well
as drafts and an advertisement. The general correspondence subseries contains letters regarding
assorted drama projects.
Bridges spoke at a variety of events, as illustrated by the Addresses and Speeches series.
The series includes copies of speeches given at the Shippensburg High School graduation, art
unveilings, and memorial services, among other events.
The Other Writings series includes articles written for assorted newspapers, including a
piece on Bridges’ own reporting experiences. The series also includes related correspondence,
notes for lectures, and miscellaneous writings and notes.
The President Woodrow Wilson series contains a significant portion of the Bridges
collection and pertains to the friendship between the two men. The general correspondence
includes letters referencing Wilson, as well as communication with members of the Wilson
family. All letters to Bridges are original, unless noted; all letters from Bridges are copies, unless
noted. A second subseries, Bridges on Wilson, relates to tributes Bridges wrote about Wilson,
with the letters of response that Bridges received. Ephemera contains items such as Wilson’s
inauguration invitation and program, inaugural address booklet, White House invitations, and
clippings of articles about Wilson. The Images subseries contains india paper proofs for the
portrait of Wilson used in Bridges’ tribute of Wilson, as well as a signed portrait.
The Princeton University series focuses primarily on works relating to Bridges’
recollections of his time at the college. The class notes subseries contains notes from a history
class Bridges took during his senior year. The Correspondence and Bridges on Princeton
subseries are comprised of letters, poems, and written works, including class reunion songs
penned by Bridges years after his graduation. The Nassau Literary Magazine subseries contains
issues from 1878-1900, during which time Bridges served as an editor for the student publication.
The Ephemera subseries includes a program from the inauguration of college president John
Grier Hibben, and a menu and publication for a Class of ’79 reunion.
The Aldine Club series documents Bridges involvement with the Aldine Club of New
York City, a club for publishers and other literary minded men. There are subseries for events,
consisting of menus for the various dinners and programs held in honor of individuals, and
invitation responses, with RSVPS sent to Bridges for club events.
The Personal series examines Bridges’ life outside of his literary work, beginning with a
subseries for bills and receipts. It also contains a substantial correspondence subseries with
